I was at the Seahawks draft party at Century Link and the whole place went dead silent followed up by a bunch of "what the hell" he wasn't even listed on the draft card as a DE. I was so confused. Glad I'm not GM...great draft! Really happy with it.

i called for 10-12 sacks from irvin so he still has a couple to get in the next 3 games!! i also called that r wilson would be starting by the end of the season.. it just happened a lot sooner than i thought! wagner and turbin have been great surprises for me!

I like Irvin. Bruce has good potential but his consistency bothers me. In watching the all22 I see got some good hurries in. I worry about his consistency. His best game was vs green bay when I think he got the first two sacks early in the game to set the tone. His other key sacks were against patriots to seal the game. I'd like to see more of his sacks come at pivotal moments in the game, rather than in garbage time.

I hope he bulks up this summer.

Also a big kudos to him for staying out of trouble off the field. Hopefully he does not surround himself with bad influences over the summer.

Kuechly is a stud, watching his NFL play. He would have made a terrific Seahawk too. No complaints at all about Irvin or Wagner. I wonder if Kuechly was still available at our draft slot if we would have taken him over Irvin. No regrets, in any case; Irvin has been doing great things, and for sure will continue to improve and be even more of a force. I thought Kuechly would be a stiff in the NFL but I was wrong and now just have to admire his play.

We're getting immediate production from several rookies every year, and even more draft picks producing a year or two after being drafted. Imagine how much better we'll be with one more draft class, and this year's late round picks developing.
